Intended Use
The intended use of the temperature probes is to measure temperature by a resistor that is sensitive to temperature changes. The probe is connected to the patient monitor by using an interconnect cable. These probes have skin or core contact with a patient. Skin probe (SSP 400 and SSP 700): The Skin Sensor Probe is indicated for use in the routine monitoring of skin temperature. It is individually packaged. The skin temperature probe is designed for use with Data Scope, Protocol and DeBusk monitoring systems and other monitors capable with 400 Series temperature probes. The device is indicated for use by qualified medical personnel only. GP Probes (GP 9400, GP 9700 and GP 14400): The General Purpose Temperature Probe is intended for continuous temperature monitoring. The probe is inserted into the nasopharynx, mouth or the rectum. It is individually packaged. The temperature probe beneath the cuff at the distal tip is designed for use with Data Scope, Protocol and DeBusk monitoring systems and other monitors capable with 400 Series temperature probes. The device is indicated for use by qualified medical personnel only. Tympanic Probe (TP 400 and TP 700: The Tympanic Probe is intended for monitoring patient temperature through the outer auditory ear canal. It is individually packaged.

No
The device description and intended use focus solely on basic temperature measurement using a resistor and connection to a monitor, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is solely intended for measuring temperature and does not provide any therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is a temperature probe intended for continuous monitoring of skin or core body temperature. Its function is to measure a physiological parameter, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a temperature probe that measures temperature using a resistor and connects to a patient monitor via a cable. This describes physical hardware components, not software only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
  • Device Function: The described temperature probes are designed to measure temperature directly from the patient's body (skin, nasopharynx, mouth, rectum, outer auditory ear canal). This is an in vivo measurement, not an in vitro examination of a specimen.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to monitor patient temperature, which is a physiological parameter measured directly from the living body.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a general medical device for physiological monitoring, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 880.2910 Clinical electronic thermometer.

(a)
Identification. A clinical electronic thermometer is a device used to measure the body temperature of a patient by means of a transducer coupled with an electronic signal amplification, conditioning, and display unit. The transducer may be in a detachable probe with or without a disposable cover.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in part 807, subpart E of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 880.9 and the following conditions for exemption:(1) Device is not a clinical thermometer with telethermographic functions;
(2) Device is not a clinical thermometer with continuous temperature measurement functions; and
(3) Appropriate analysis and testing (such as that outlined in the currently FDA-recognized editions, as appropriate, of ISO 80601-2-56, “Medical electrical equipment—Part 2-56: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of clinical thermometers for body temperature measurement,” or ASTM E1965, “Standard Specification for Infrared Thermometers for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1112, “Standard Specification for Electronic Thermometer for Intermittent Determination of Patient Temperature,” or ASTM E1104, “Standard Specification for Clinical Thermometer Probe Covers and Sheaths”) must validate specifications and performance of the device.
